Former boxing star Floyd "Money" Mayweather is adding another investment to his portfolio, this time in the online casino industry.

While the undefeated boxing legend made his name in the ring, he has remained a major figure in pop culture thanks to his business ventures and larger-than-life persona. Known for his affinity for wealth and high-stakes investments, Mayweather has now turned his attention to the world of gambling.

On March 12, the 15-time boxing world champion announced the launch of a new slot game bearing his name.

"You've seen me own the ring, now it's your turn to play the Money Mayweather slot game! I'm all about winning, and now, you have the chance too," he wrote on Instagram.

Given Mayweather’s reputation as a savvy businessman, his involvement in the gambling industry is not surprising. However, while he is known for placing massive bets on sports, there is little evidence that he has a particular interest in slot machines, Sports Illustrated reported.

Mayweather’s last competitive boxing match was in 2017, where he defeated MMA star Conor McGregor via 10th-round TKO, securing his 50-0 record.

As of 2025, his net worth is estimated at US$500 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. He is considered one of the greatest boxers of all time.
